Paperback. Condizione: New. New ed. Lebanon is the prisoner of its geography and its history, a prize for invaders since ancient times, a small multi-denominational state still recovering from a bloody civil war in its search for political autonomy and stability. This book examines the country's recent past since 2005, when a mass movement agitated against Syrian dominance in the wake of the assassination of former prime minister Rafik Hariri. Also detailed are the role of Hezbollah and other political groups. The authors examine the changes that these events brought to Lebanon, be they lasting or ephemeral, and the challenges they represent for a state which, despite the resilience of its power-sharing system of government, remains hotly contested and unconsolidated. Sectarian tensions have escalated, predominantly between the Sunni and Shia communities, causing outbursts of street-based violence and paralysis in government. This two-bloc system has left Lebanon ungovernable, not simply due to deep-seated political differences, but because of the external linkages which ties the two blocs to their foreign patrons, namely the USA and Iran. As the Arab Spring develops, it also increases Hezbollah's significance to Iran as the embattled Assad regime struggles to quash the Syrian insurgency.…

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Lebanon is the prisoner of its geography and its history. It has been a prize for invaders since ancient times and is presently a small multi-denominational state still recovering from a bloody civil war in its search for political autonomy and stability. Lebanon examines the country's recent past since 2005 -- when a mass movement agitated against Syrian dominance in the wake of the assassination of Rafik Hariri, the then President of the country -- and also details the roles of Hezbollah and other political groups. Sectarian tensions have escalated, predominantly between the Sunni and Shia communities, causing outbursts of street violence and a paralysis in government. This two-bloc system has left Lebanon ungovernable, not simply due to deep-seated political differences, but also because of their external linkages to foreign patrons, namely the USA and Iran. As the Arab Spring develops, it also increases Hezbollah's significance to Iran as the embattled Assad regime struggles to quash the Syrian insurgency. The authors examine the changes that recent events have brought to Lebanon, whether lasting or ephemeral, and the challenges they represent for a state, which despite the resilience of its power-sharing system of government remains hotly contested and unconsolidated.

Covers show rubbing to the edges, a short crease on the rear panel. Uncreased spine. -- This volume offers an unparalleled dissection of Lebanon's labyrinthine politics, societal fault lines, and resilient power-sharing mechanisms in the aftermath of the 2005 Cedar Revolution. As the Arab world convulses with upheavals, Lebanon stands as a paradox: a nation whose consociational democracy, forged in the crucible of sectarian strife, has proven astonishingly durable yet perilously fragile. Through a mosaic of interdisciplinary essays, "Lebanon: After the Cedar Revolution" excavates the tectonic shifts since Rafik Hariri's assassination, unraveling the entangled threads of foreign interventions (by Israel, Syria, Iran, and the USA), Hezbollah's ascendance, and the paralysis of governance. The authors - renowned experts in Middle Eastern politics, sociology, and history - probe the fault lines of Lebanon's confessional system, from street-level violence and enclave mentalities to the symbolic politics of martyrdom and memory. By interrogating the very fabric of Lebanon's "unity in diversity," this book distills crucial lessons for a region convulsed by identity crises, authoritarian breakdowns, and quests for representative governance. Far from being a marginal case, Lebanon's experiment in pluralism emerges as a microcosm of the Middle East's transformational challenges - can fractured societies cohere without erasing difference? Can democracy survive external patronage and internal patron-clientelism? This is not merely a book about Lebanon; it is a prism through which the Arab Spring's promises and pitfalls are refracted, offering policymakers, scholars, and regional actors a diagnostic toolkit for understanding - and perhaps salvaging - the prospects of democratic coexistence in the Levant and beyond.…
